24 Hours For Me!

From Friday about 7 pm till Saturday about the same time, I spent time quilting some of the projects I had made. They aren't necessarily going to stay here, but I did make them.

First was the baby boy quilt for a co-workers son who is almost a year old. I'm a bad quilter, I know, but maybe he will appreciate it more, I don't know.

Raindrops panto, which is a free one, Hobbs 80/20 batting and white Omni thread.

Just look at this cute backing I found to give it a kid friendly look:

Second was this Quilts For Kids Sample strip quilt. I determined that 17 3.5" strips makes the right size.

Popcorn panto for this one and the next:

This is just a little NICU quilt with some leftovers:

The 2nd Big One is Done!

I loaded Stephanie's 116" square quilt last night and I thought it would be days before it was done, but I just kept quilting and ta-da, it's finished. I've never done this type of quilting, called cinnamon bun, but that's what she wanted. She brought some books by Kim Diehl with photos of this quilting design.







My first practice was a 30's panel, which I will bind for a NICU quilt. I thought there was too much space between the swirls.



So, I loaded this Quilt of Valor of Kathy's and tried again. This one is flannel, so the swirls are a bit larger, but I thought I had practiced enough to load Stephanie's quilt.





I think that's enough cinnamon bun quilting for me for a while!
